I was thinking the same thing. Bet you she doesn't stay as long. She said she was 5 minutes from the beach, so that isn't true either? I'm in America so I don't know the area. $4,000/month would be really expensive here, depending on the airbnb of course. How can she afford it?
She is 5 minutes from the beach, just not Byron beach as she makes out.
rents in Australia are astronomical at the moment especially in that general area because it’s a desirable area to live but thousands of homes were lost in floods so there is a rental shortage.
so $1k/week for a fully furnished place with a view isn’t bad.
what is bad is that based on what she shares it’s probably beyond her means. She could have got a lovely smaller place that is less fancy for a lot less money.
she has to pay $52k/year just in rent, if you pay more than 30% in rent you are deemed to be in rental stress.
That means she has to be making $173k after tax, which means she has to make about $260k before tax which is $5k/week.
who’s betting Crystal didn’t do this math (kind of like how she didn’t do the due diligence when she opened her homewares store and realised how expensive shipping was and how hard delivery times were and that the math didn’t work on small margins).
anyway she’ll hustle to try and keep it, I predict a whole bunch of those I’ll style your house on the cheap deals again (the ones she said she wouldn’t do because she is onto bigger things).
I doubt there’s a lot of money in this smart home collab - it’s more ego for her. She gets so much significance from working with d grade celebs and partnering with brands but most influencers don’t make a lot of money. Fame and free stuff doesn’t pay the bills.
or if she doesn’t pull it off she’ll manifest a new dream and start a new chapter…

how many furnished rentals are there? Who would want that? (Besides high rise apartments for corporates)
All that cork makes it crystals dream home - barb the builder can use thumb tacks to style all the rooms with her beige curtains… it’s one step up from cable ties!
